Open Thread! * The Latest on Our Hillary

Are you in need of some giggles?

I guarantee you will laugh your ass off!!!!

I’m with you–she knows what she’s doing, and let me ask those that are skeptical a question: how safe would you feel with a Secretary of State Bill (Judas) Richardson at the helm? I’d sleep much better at night knowing HRC is handling matters of state.

If she stays in the Senate, that’s great too. She’s a force either way. All the forces arrayed against her have not been able to dim her light.

Rise Hillary Rise.

p.s. Notice how all the headlines, as usual, frame the issue as a problem with the Clintons. They just can’t help themselves. That CDS is a chronic condition.

Yup. Anti-war groups snap at Hillary as they realize, no matter what he does, obama cannot be criticized

Here is at last some good news. Will Strickland do the right thing and terminate this woman? Maybe 0bama has a cabinet post for her. I hear Commerce is now open ….

Report: Records search on Joe the Plumber improper

Nov 20 04:53 PM US/Eastern
By JOHN SEEWER
Associated Press Writer Write a Comment

TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) – An agency director improperly used state computers to find personal information on “Joe the Plumber,” a government watchdog said in a report released Thursday.
There was no legitimate business purpose for the head of Ohio’s Department of Job and Family Services to order staff to look up the records, Inspector General Tom Charles said.

Investigators weren’t able to determine whether the searches were politically motivated, the report said.

“All these searches were done in the midst of a national political campaign,” the report said. “But we did not find any evidence that shows the data was accessed or information released in response to media requests in an effort to support any political activity or agenda.”

The agency director, Helen Jones-Kelley, was placed on leave this month over separate allegations that a state computer or state e-mail account was used to assist in political fundraising for Democrat Barack Obama’s campaign.

The inspector general’s report concluded that she improperly used state e-mail to engage in political activity.

The report looked into 18 background checks into Samuel J. Wurzelbacher, a Toledo-area man known as Joe the Plumber. He became a household name in the final weeks of the presidential campaign after asking Obama about his tax plan at a campaign stop near Toledo.

Eight of the checks were done without any legitimate business purpose, the report said. Charles recommended tighter policies on access to confidential information in state computer databases.

The findings have been forwarded to the Franklin County prosecutor’s office in Columbus.

There was no home telephone listing for Jones-Kelley in Columbus.

Jones-Kelley has said the search of Wurzelbacher’s records were part of routine checks her agency conducts when someone suddenly emerges in the limelight.

She told state Senate President Bill Harris in a letter that records were checked because Wurzelbacher had indicated he might buy a business and it was determined he that owed back taxes. The department wanted to make sure appropriate actions were taken if he owed child support, received public assistance or owed unemployment compensation taxes, she wrote.

Jones-Kelley’s reasoning was at times contradictory, inconsistent and ambiguous, the inspector general’s report said.

It also found no policies or procedures to support her claim that it was the agency’s practice to look into someone thrust in the spotlight.

As Wurzelbacher’s profile was elevated in Republican John McCain’s campaign, criticism over the Ohio search rose to a fever pitch.

Republicans were furious that Wurzelbacher was targeted, saying that he was simply a private citizen who stood up and questioned the Democratic presidential candidate.

Juda betrayed Hillary and will batrayed us too. he will sell our national security if he has to for his own sake.

HEY, I think WE ALL (or most) KNOW, ABSOLUTELY KNOW Hillary would be a GREAT S O S. I don’t think that was ever a factor.

And, your ” P.S. Ted Kennedy I don’t care if you have a brain tumor that was an a–h-le thing to do to all of a sudden dangle health care in front of her to prevent her from becoming SecState, after denying it to her all this time. You are contemptible, sir.” I agree. AND, it’s obvious he did that to try to sway her from SOS, because he just got done telling her that she couldn’t have a sub committee and it would be Obama that will rally health care change, no one else. OUT OF HIS OWN MOUTH.

So, that reason is a darn good one, besdies a couple others, for Hillary to take the SOS. But I am still very conflicted in Hillary having to help the O-shit! and make his presidency more successful than it otherwise be without her help, when they constantly keep sh!tting on her. BUT, by no means does she NEED it and no way should Bill and Hillary give anymore than they have been or agreed to do. The fact that O-shit! wants so much limitations on Bill and control on his future efforts is just outrageous, so in that case, I say, walk away. If O-shit! curbs his ego long enough to make a smart choice and drop the idiocy, that’s another point.

And not a surprise that “most Americans” support Hillary as SOS. Most Americans supported Hillary for President and Vice President too and look where we are.

Embarrassing Video For Attorney General Nominee Eric Holder

And side note. Why is it the market starts working on it’s own and then they talk bailout and it drops again.

Reports that it seemed unlikely that there would be a bailout today and the stock market rose over 100 pts. Then “Anonymous” Senators come out with “we have a secret deal” 2 Dems and 2 Repbs and the market drops.

Then Democrats come out with they really want a deal and they are going to ask for spending plans. AND THEN THE MARKET CRASHES 400 more pts.

HELLOOOOOOOOo. NO BAILOUT

I even got a kick out of this email today from Plug In America.

American automakers are begging for a bailout. And they have a significant amount of money headed their way. A $25 billion loan was approved by Congress in September.

This money was designed to help the auto companies retool for the manufacture of fuel-efficient vehicles. These are vehicles that Americans want and need now more than ever.

Now the automakers are asking to use that money for short-term cash flow needs. In other words, at the brink of bankruptcy, the automakers are still resisting technological change and wishing for business as usual. GM CEO Rick Wagoner admits his company is burning through “$5 billion each month.” How does GM expect to repay taxpayers, and compete in tomorrow’s showrooms, without undergoing change?

Congress is back in session today, Thursday. They may retain the existing fuel-efficiency provisions, or could decide to give the automakers the $25 billion with no strings attached.

Congress doesn’t want to risk being blamed for “letting the carmakers go under”, and so may drop the fuel-efficiency requirements. They need to hear from us that we support keeping the requirements in place. They need to understand we want our American automakers to gear up for the cars of the future.

oh myy god, drew carey show was killing me. i love the first one too!

How many of the hopey dopeys were watching anything other than Sesame Street the day this occurred? Do you think they will understand it?

I agree that I would sleep better but that isn’t the question. SOS is not elected. She/he serves at the pleasure of the Resident. Based on that, she’s gone if he get’s a toothache. I would rather she be a voice in the Senate than a photo op in the Rose Garden. But hey, I’m just one person.

The more i think about hill as SoS, I think it would be great. I mostly skeptical in the beginning because of what happened with the VP rumors. Whatever she does, I know she will make the right choice!

Has anyone been keeping track of the women being added to the new administration? I was reading that Janet Napolitano is the Secretary of Homeland Security, which is good, but are there any others?

Thank you for that link. Well, it really is no surprise that Obama has chosen a LIAR. Birds of a feather and all that.

**********BREAKING NEWS*************
CHENEY is arrested for high crimes along with Alberto Gonzales and others…

http://www.themonitor.com/articles/attorney_20005___article.html/state_district.html

In the Senate SHE’S just one person. Her vote counts for exactly 1%.

ONE PERCENT.

By contrast, as Secretary of State, she is fourth in line for the Presidency. (It’s Obama, Biden, Pelosi, then Hillary) She is the country’s top diplomat. And she has a very high-profile role internationally.

I still don’t get why any Hillary supporter who opposes Obie’s positions would want he as SoS. Doesnt the SoS work for the president still? Dont they just do the presidents bidding? Will she be out there meeting with Abdimidjad, Casto, etc. … Didnt she say his foreign policy approach was naive? He is still going to be making the decisions and she will have to just obey. Until he fires her and she is neither SoS or senator.

I dont get it.

Yeah…. Ask Prince Charles how second is working out. And in England, it’s a family business. Mummy not likely to cut off his head.

Does anyone know if there had ever been a prior free fall in the markets after a US Presidential election? I thought they usually took a bounce up.

Hold your horses. They weren’t arrested. They were indicted.

The monarchy in England has no political power–they’re figureheads like Obama.

Charles can be whatever he wants. That was Diana’s problem, she couldn’t figure out that she didn’t have to spend her life trying to destroy the man who’d been unfaithful to her. She should have picked herself up, made the most of being the most popular woman in the world, and made Charles sorry he’d neglected her.

Ted Kennedy is contemptible, he gets more so by the day. Talk about a narcissist complex, the guy just can’t see for looking. He’s in danger of turning himself into a total buffoon.

“The last thing we need is for Obama to fail! It’s too twisted to think like that! It’s too Old Testament. It’s too self-centered to think like that.”

Can you tell us how do you really feel? Too self centered???? Are you making double sure no one suggests anything like this???
What’s up with this thought being hammered away at here? I don’t recall seeing any poster wringing their hands with glee wishing for Obot to fail. I’ve seen people think he’s a liar, an election thief and inexperienced – but no one cheerleading for his (and our failure).

and the indictments will be dismissed. the were filed by an outgoing lunatic county d.a.

Don’t know, but it’s interesting that the market goes down if the Big 3 don’t get a cash infusion from the feds. So much for the free market. Please, just please.

Speaking of Judas, I refuse to look at the Taylor Marsh site. If any woman deserves all the acrimony that can be heaped on her, it’s TM. Jeralyn Merritt, too.

OH! And Elian Gonzalez was the reason Florida, most specifically Miami, went Republican in 2000 and again in 2004.

This will be picking at some old sores.

I should clarify. Because the CUBAN’s were very angry about Elian. AND THEY overwhelmingly voted for Repubs in 2000 and 2004.

This from Politico:Chicago businesswoman Penny Pritzker, national campaign finance chairwoman for the Obama campaign, has taken herself out of the running to be secretary of commerce, a Democratic official said.
“She fears problems with her confirmation based on past business dealings,” the official said.”

Gee, ya think Penny?

The One with superior judgement is vetting someone he and his campaign labelled a racist and a liar, who only had forgeign experience in sipping tea with other leaders wives, as a possible SoS?

Obama is proving what a fake and disuntifier he is, sole goal is his own greatness he believes he is owed since he is a completely unqualified person to be POTUS!

This is like gangs taking over the country then going opps, now what do I do! What a f*cking joke!

there have been plenty of comments about it.

Senate or Clinton Initiative = possible run in 2012
SOS = not running for president again

It all depends on where you want to see Hillary Clinton in the future.

WOW

Just turned on tv several minutes ago for the 1st time today, tv was on msnbc and damned if they weren’t trashing the Clintons for a change.

It was Lawrence O’Donnell and Norah O’Donnell (no relation to each other as far as I know).

She’s a snippy lil republican and he’s a die hard liberal who slurps on Obama’s rhetoric daily.

They were discussing that this hold up of Hillary’s appointment is all the Clinton’s fault. They say, that “Obama’s sources say” that it is the Clinton’s who are leaking info the press regarding the appointment and they say it is Bill Clinton who is holding up the appt because something something regarding his financial blah blah blah…

This is soooo much bullshit.. CNN does it too, but MSNBC is much worse in their handling of the topic.

If you can turn on MSNBC at random any time of day and find them talking about this, that tells you they are talking about it non stop..

Anything, anyway, to trash the Clinton’s

I can’t help but wonder if all of the negative comments from the MSM are based on their own ratings fears. As SoS, it might be hard to lure her onto their-mean spirited little programs making them less relevant in the news arena. You know the level of self interest and self promotion that exists out there in big ego land. They probably want someone they can intimidate a little bit and we all know that is not how Hillary will conduct herself if she decides to go forward with the new position.

“Ted Kennedy I don’t care if you have a brain tumor, that was an a–h-le thing to do — to all of a sudden dangle health care in front of her to try to prevent her from becoming SecState, after denying it to her all this time. You are contemptible, sir.”

Mary Jo Kopechne is unavailable for comment.

If Hillary becomes SoS, I will feel a little better about the incoming administration. And honestly, I need to feel a little better — I don’t want to feel like this (how I’ve felt since Nov. 5)for the coming four years.

Hear! Hear!

I thought of that briefly at one time too, but in fact they love trashing the Clinton’s, so they should love her appt so they can trash her daily.

Lots and lots of message control.

true, plus, even though I’m personally happy to see all these Clinton ppl in all these new positions, the msm, who adore obambi, have been trashing his “change” rhetoric by saying it’s stunning that he got the nomination and election over Clinton, but he is literally using all Clinton’s ppl for his administration.

I find it humorous anyway.. I mean I think it’s the right thing to do, but the media aren’t showing him much adulation for doing it!

Meanwhile the Dow is down 500 pts and that’s affecting my life

Lena Grove aka nasus says:

I can just see John Kerry standing in the shadows whispering in Ted Kennedy’s ear. And what is Obama going to do with Bill Richardson? Goodness, so much talent, so few positions. I think Janet Napolitano would make a good Secretary of Homeland Security, but that would leave Arizona State government to the wolves.

Just how bright is this guy? He has that look of utter lameness about him. Ugha.

More good news for obama!

Via halperin:

The Dow drops more than 400 points, for the second straight day.

Citigroup shares fall 26%. Oil falls to its lowest levels in nearly three years.

S&P 500 now at 11-year low.

My understanding is that Janet Napolitano was in charge of his internet donations. If this is true, then she’s corrupt imo and it angers me to see her in any leading position.

omg…LMAO…too funny…

he needs to send penny out of the country as ambassador to england or something. that’ll do. the english have dealt with others, they’ll know to deal with her. go right past her to the professionals i imagine.

well doc, we know kennedy is an embarrasment. i don’t think he has much time and his thinking skills might be diminished right now. i agree however that he is beyond contempt.

considering this man has devoted, what, the last 40 yrs to public service and is highly respected on both sides of the aisle, that’s a rather low, low blow on the ‘Mary Jo’ part.

cripes, she didn’t spend very much time pondering that excuse now did she?? Such scrutiny just because he said he was going to buy a business-not hardly. Perhaps they will not scrutinize her background since she actually did something illegal.

Lena says
HILLLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRY! I’m 150% for Hillary taking SecState, and I don’t care if you disagree!

You win the prize for saying that the best in one sentence…

About the falling Dow, I know a few people with their own businesses(restaurants,landscaping etc) who have always made a good living. They are going through some lean times right now and are scared to death of BO and his tax plan in the WH. Remember 80%of small business CEO’s and owners supported McCain. These business employ 20 or less people but with enough of them going under that could also spell disaster. The stock market is reacting in part to the realization that the economic system as we have known it will soon be only a memory. I think HRC is a great politician and woman but I think with the way MSNBC and CNN are playing this non-stop that they’re in cahoots with BO and his gang. Who knows what they are up to. One thing I’ve learned since last January is I don’t trust BO, his people or the mainstream media–I haven’t bought a newspaper, magazine or watched network or cable television(except for Greta Van Sustern) since this whole nightmare began.

I’m for it and Chris Matthews isn’t. That’s a good enough reason for me.

Let me be clear, I am an AA who did not vote for Obama and will never support this phony, race-baiting liar. I marched with Dr. king and I detest what Obama did to steal the nomination from Hillary. The Repubs helped him steal it from Hilalry. now I see the repubs like Sean Hanity (I started watching him around July after Hillary quit) will try to make a big deal out of Eric Holder’s stint at justice. Give it up it won’t work. The pardons, Elan, etc. Holder is a top notch person who served his country well. Janet Reno was right about Elan. The boy would not have had to be taken by gunpoint if the distant Castro hating relatives had given him up.

As long as it’s Open Thread: I keep trying to watch “Media Matters”. I gave up during the campaign because they NEVER gave Hillary an even break…tried again today: same old same old. That poor boor Barack – everyone keeps saying mean things about him.

He’s a boor.

I wasn’t tryin to be flip.

Fourth in line? You’re kidding me, right? That’s what appears on the flow charts.

There is a damn good reason why they don’t tell you who was second best at a dog show.

Nothing forgives what Ted Kennedy did to Mary Jo. Absolutely Nothing.

couldn’t agree more. thought he didn’t need or respect the Clintons?? Gee, now that his ass is in the fryin’ pan and the heat is on, things look a little different than they do on the stage in front of the adoring fans.

Dow, Fearing Obama’s Socialist Policies, Dives Another 445 Points

http://patriotroom.com/dow-fearing-obamas-socialist-policies-dives-another-445-points/

The Kennedys were way over-rated. I don’t care much for LBJ and his legacy but he was right about the Kennedys. Joe K was yesteryear’s version of a drug-runner. As for service, Teddy could have retired a long time ago and I would have been satisfied. And you’re right about Mary Jo Kopechne.

P.S. Ted Kennedy I don’t care if you have a brain tumor, that was an a–h-le thing to do — to all of a sudden dangle health care in front of her to try to prevent her from becoming SecState, after denying it to her all this time. You are contemptible, sir.

I didn’t take Kennedy’s proposal that way at all. He’s simply given Hillary a very credible, graceful, and politically useful way out, if she should decide for some reason that it’s best to decline the SoS position. It isn’t pressuring; it’s an available option.

This will also drive up tinfoil hat futures.

The Clintons should privately tell that one to go to blazes and not sign on to this sinking-ship-in-the-making. After a fashion, I’m relieved the reins of government are going to be turned over to that neophyte. There will be plenty of blame to spread around when the bills come due (as Carter found out during the Vietnam hangover) and the blame won’t go to Chimpy, much as he earned and deserves it. I wouldn’t touch any job with the future That One administration.

IMHO, Mrs. Clinton would make a fine Sec State. The hard part for her would be to remain on the same page as the President.

She would be great but she’d be better off working in private industry, though, if she has to work for someone of lesser capability. At least there she’d get paid for giving the boss all his ideas.

I think it would be a mistake for Hillary to become SOS. She will be forced to work for Obama, and he will relegate her to the ceremonial, while he does the substantive negotiations internationally. She is being asked to go there in order to keep her powerless and unable to run against him in 2012.

She would stand a great chance of becoming Majority Leader, in that Reid is WEAK and ineffective. From there is is a logical jump from Congressional oversight / counterbalance to candidate. Besides, she can continue in the Senate and allow Bill to raise money to retire her debts, etc. Otherwise, Bill’s fund raising and speechifying efforts would have to end, as gets a considerable percentage of his money from Middle Eastern Arab nations, many of whom have awkward relationships (at best) with the US.

Please NO NO NO NO to the SOS offer!!!!! I am totally in agreement with the posting on the ClintonDems.com site:

I am bothered by the giddiness of some Clinton Democrats here about the prospect of having Hillary accept the Secretary of State post. Let me remind you of the following:

1. Hillary will unnecessarily let go of her political power by accepting this post.

Hillary got the most number of votes in the primaries. She is still the most popular Democrat. Why are we so excited with the prospect of stripping her of every political capital she has rightly earned because of this by accepting a very restricting role? As Secretary of State, she will not be able to campaign for others, she cannot raise funds for other candidates and she cannot build her coalition. She will not be able to do anything except that which Obama will allow her to. Is this the straight-jacket that you want her to wear?

2. Hillary will not be more effective as Secretary of State than she will be as an independent senator.

As Secretary of State, she will effectively relinquish any independence she enjoys and will simply become the mouthpiece of Obama. We don’t know who Obama really is. What we know of him is scary. Why should we be happy with having Hillary become straighjacketed with her post. As Senator, she can influence policy in a bigger way because of her political power and because of her independence. As Secretary of State, she may be asked to defend policies that she doesn’t agree with and sell it to a dubious public and get the flak for it but not the credit if anything goes well. Witness Condi Rice and Collin Powell.

3. Hillary will lose security of tenure if she becomes Secretary of State.

As Senator, she has all the tenure in the world. She can carry her position for so long as she wants it. If she relinquishes her post now, it may not be possible to get it back as a new Democrat Senator might take her place. As Secretary of State, she can be replaced at any time by the Obama camp for any reason. Again, why are some Clinton Democrats excited over this prospect?

agree. Bad move for Hillary. I would personally prefer to have her independent of Obama, to serve as a very real check on his policy excesses, which are surely likely to come. She is the only politician in the US right now who is capable of mounting an offensive against Obama in the press. Whether she may need or want to is an open question, but I would feel better with the Clinton’s at least in position to do something if the situation warranted.

Barb: You are spot on and I concur with your assessment. HRC should give that one the finger, which he so often gave her.

I don’t know about her being in charge of Obama’s internet donations, but she is a former US Attorney and Attorney General for the State of Arizona. She was respected with never a hint of scandal. I can’t imagine her being involved in any kind of corruption.

hmmmm, note to self: Invest in TIN.

It infuriates me that the Clinton’s continue to get blamed for every misstep in the Obama camp. I don’t get why all the media is saying the Clinton’s leaked out Hillary being considered for SoS when the name of every adviser and cabinet position being chosen so far has been leaked to the press days before the name has been announced as fact. Did the Clinton camp leak all those names too?

I think if Hillary is named as SoS, the media will be forced to show her the respect she deserves. They will have to switch their trashing to Obama himself.

I know; it’s surreal, isn’t it.

I don’t get it either, she’d be putting herself under his power, and oh what a great place that is to be (not)

More throwing NQ commenters under the bus. Great. If this keeps up, there won’t be many visitors here anymore unless they agree with the party line. Larry can say whatever he wants, but so long as he allows his posters to attack commenters, he is not tolerating varying viewpoints.

Yup, and until the last day or so I believed NQ was one of the last bastions of democracy. It is looking less and less so.

I just noticed that the faux seal for the faux office is BACK…seen on fox.

Princess Di was on that track (full independence) until she was bumped off. Too much for her EX’s fragile ego.

If so, Penny Pritzker — Sub-Prime Mortgage Queen — has just uttered the greatest understatement of the year! Didn’t she initially implement the “creative accounting” that put the economy in the sub-prime mess we’re in?

Also, I find her first name ironic — Penny — since she’s worth billions…. Or perhaps it’s just telling that her name is based on a monetary designation.

Well we all know MSNBC is against the appointment.

Hillary’s issues were health care, education, equal rights.
These are all domestic, and are where she has focused and exceled through out her career.
Certainly she could handle the world stage, but it would be entirely different from her previous endeavors…and God knows SOMEONE should work for the American people for a change!

Christ–the glitteratti are taking over. All style and tiny little hats.

From Uppity’s piece earlier, it would seem that if Clinton does take that position, Obama the Micromanager will want to oversiew ALL of President Clinton’s speeches. Presumably, if he can review them, he can also censor them. WTH???

WHAT other president has had to put up with the kind of crapola Bill has at the hands of Obama?? That alone is reason enough for Hillary to tell him to take that job and shove it. Pres. Clinton does not need to have his international speeches, for his FOUNDATION, held up to scrutiny by Obama. I bet they would come back looking like Valerie Plame’s book (i.e., redacted). Just sayin’.

I will support Hillary in whatever decision she makes. However, I think it would be a VERY serious mistake for her to accept SoS.

Yes, she would be an excellent SoS. However, this would be irreparably damaging to her political career and legacy.

Let’s be blunt; wishing and praying that Obama’s presidency is a success will not make it so. Obama is nothing better than a Chicago politician. We’re already witnessing the same cronyism that was a staple of the Bush administration.

Obama at best will be a one termer and anyone associated with his administration can kiss their political aspirations goodbye.

While many continue to delude themselves that Obama is the love-child of JFK/MLK/Lincoln the reality is Obama is our next Nixon.

EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!!

The Constitution doesn’t say you need a birth certificate. Birth certificates didn’t get widely used until 1946. George Washington didn’t have a birth certificate. Ronald Reagan didn’t have a birth certificate. yep, that’s what Obama’s lawyers will say.

The fact is he was never Jack or Bobby or even Joe jr. (war hero) for that matter. He’s the loser brother.

Ted’s legacy will forever be CHAPPAQUIDDICK.

If Hillary is in the Obama administration, I wonder if Obama will bring Bill Richardson in, too. (in any capacity)- Obama owes him, but what an uncomfortable situation that would create. My guess: Richardson gets nothing for his support of Obama, which would serve him right.

Disagree. What Kennedy did to Kopechne was low, low, low. Irreparably LOW.

Oh and first wife Joan did’nt come out of that marriage too well either.

Richardson might end up at Interior, Commerce, Transportation or HUD.

I want to see her not beholding to 0bama for her survival.

The Constitution doesn’t say you need a birth certificate.

The Constitution doesn’t “say” anything. You are correct, however, that it does not “state” a requirement for a birth certificate. But then, the Constitution does not address anything about education, either, but we have it. Your argument is ultimately irrelevant. So if you agree there is a requirement in Article II, (if you’re at all literate, you will agree there is one) then how does one enforce such a requirement?

A COLB, dumbass.

Ronald Reagan didn’t have a birth certificate. yep, that’s what Obama’s lawyers will say.

Another irrelevant argument. Which part of That One is the subject of this inquiry and not Reagan are you not understanding? In addition, Reagan had a long history, many friends, and parents who were American, Goob. You can’t make the same claim for your false idol, idle, whatever.

Hey Mr. Ferd! When folks try dancing around and shading the obvious this is merely an intellectually lazy distraction on their part. As I pointed out last night, thank god the SCOTUS don’t give a rat’s ass what bloggers think. If I was Opampers, I would be very concerned the SCOTUS may choose to exert itself to demonstrate they are still highly relevant and the keepers of the flame of the USC. Clearly Opampers and his followers hold our most sacred and esteemed document in disdain and contempt.

Nah, he’s going to be in the next martial arts movie as Phaht-So, a turncoat politician. The goatee will serve him nicely.

I’m in agreement, Galt. I doubt this issue has been resolved in the slightest. That One (TM) had an opportunity to put all this to rest simply by giving the court a certified copy. Why all the lawyers and obfuscation? Something is quite rotten here and it reeks.

Joe the Plumber should do an online version of his book so people can download it and read it.

I want a Hillary that is going to run for president in 2012, I know Obama is trying to shut her and Bill up, get into their business and use anything and everything against them.
He is contemptible.
He wants Hillary in a position where she must do and say as he commands, he wants to be able to shut Bill up, take away his opinions and Hillary’s too.
If Hillary takes SOS, her power is gone. Health-care, her baby since Bill was president, is gone.
I don’t want Hillary or Bill to ever have their voices muted. What they have to say is vitally important to our country. Obama doesnt want them to have any power whatsoever, any voice whatsoever.
Obama wants to completely control the Clinton’s, I pray God that Hillary does not fall for yet another of Obama’s sleazy plans.
He hates them because we love them.

he’s going to be in the next martial arts movie as Phaht-So, a turncoat politician. The goatee will serve him nicely.

Good one Ferd. I can picture him in his silken yellow robe, his hair pulled back in a pony-tail, squinting pure evil from his narrow eyes. And, of course, when he speaks, his words will not be quite in synch with the movement of his lips. Phaht-So indeed!

Stay in the Senate, Hillary, and keep your power, your independence and your broad base of voters for down the line.

Hillary should stay in the Senate-where she still has a bright future. The Obamas and the Clintons hate each other-how hard is it predict the end of this tedious story if she gives him a chance to end it on his terms.

Additionally I’m a great believer in looking at the obvious. Obama obviously is not interested in helping the Clintons so why is he giving Hillary a plum position? He must desperately want her out of the Senate. If he is so scared of her being there then her power there must be even greater than people know. Stay Hillary stay!

As this is an open thread, I thought I’d just sound out a new script I’m writing:

In it, appearing unprepared for the dissolution of the USSR, the CIA sets up a troll where it makes Russia and the American treasonous right wing think they’ve achieved victory, setting up a face off against one another.

Hilarity, and broken teeth, result as the two dumbest mofos on the face of the earth square off, in the process destroying BOTH their bases, but also touching lives, as brave American men and women are affected in this battle of the oh, witless kooks.

I will bill it as the biggest clandestine operation since “Charlie Wilson’s War” or something of the sort, a sort of Rambo for the smart set, where US world strategic dominance is achieved through intelligence, unquestionably, defeating the reds, and their dirty commie corporate American benefactors.

Or something like that .

Are action/espionage movies still selling?

Last time I checked, the market was slowing.

I’ll have to speak to my producer friend.

I dunno, I’m think Carl Reiner, and “the russians are coming” crossed with one of those Harrison Ford type thrillers, crossed with a William Goldman script.

Thanks

Very much ^_^

Yes seen the first one so often still makes me laugh gonna try it someday LOL

Why hasn’t she been fired? And sued? Then jailed.

Wondering if there will an investigation as to who she released the information to?

Many many people ponder buying a business who can barely afford to support themselves. Isnt that the American dream for many people to have their own business. So Joe expressed his dream in other terms and got slandered for it.

What is interesting I have a feeling that after all the publicity he probably will now or soon have the money to buy a business….

I generally post late and I doubt if many people actually see these posts, but here goes: I don’t feel safe or unsafe simply because some individual is the secretary of state. It’s the president who sets the agenda. I don’t care if Jesus himself was the secretary of state or Buddha or fill in the blank, with Obama as the CIC it’s a crap shoot.

Actually Tek, that’s not quite true. There are certain political things the Monarch really cannot do. But if you look at the Monarch and his family and how it impacted Great Britain during WWII, you would realize that whether it’s a figurehead position so to speak, or not the throne also carries a lot of responsibilities. People looked to the king and his family during WWII to keep going, not just Winston Churchill.

Have we forgotten that Obama is untrustworthy? That he is a misogynyst and a sexist? That he is unprepared to be president? That he’s a corrupt Chicago politican? What’s going on here that people actualy want Hillary to cover this man’s mistakes. Let him fail – spectacularly so that we can get on with cleaning up the mess of this country. SOS has NO power. If you think they do, then you’re ready to buy that bridge in Brooklyn. They serve at the pleasure of the Resident (I copied that clever little word) and are fired at the whim of the Resident. We are in an economic catastrophe in this country. Why doesn’t this dimwit announce his economic team and his secretary of the treasury and thereby soothe Wall Street? Wag the Dog anyone?

agreed.
